In order to be considered acquisition, a permanent interest in the property must be obtained. Long-term leases only qualify as acquisition if they are for 15 years or more.

Additionally, acquisition of real property is subject to the requirements under the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (URA) (42 U.S.C. 4601-4655). Real property acquisition does not include: 1. The costs of movable equipment, furnishings, or machinery. 2. A land write-down in which land is purchased at one price and then sold to the same entity at a lower price. This is not an eligible activity since it does not constitute a bona fide acquisition. 3. Acquiring newly-constructed housing or acquiring an interest in the construction of new housing. Application Submission Information 1. Project Description a. Provide a detailed description of the real property to be acquired. Include in this discussion a description of any existing buildings and site improvements. b. Indicate the present zoning and land use of the real property to be acquired. Indicate whether the activity will result in a change in use of the real property. c. Describe the intended reuse of the property subsequent to its acquisition. 2. Project Location a. Identify the exact geographic location of the real property. Indicate property address and nearest intersecting street. Indicate in what census tract and block group the activity is located. Provide a map indicating the exact location of the project. b. Indicate if the real property is located in or will have any impact on the following: (i) National Register Historic District (ii) 100 Year Floodplain (iii) Designated Wetlands Area c. Discuss how the proposed activity relates to any long-range acquisition program, and what the objectives of the program are. 3. Project Benefit a. Describe the existing problems or conditions to be corrected by the proposed activity. Section IV ELIGIBLE ACTIVITIES Page 4-1

b. Identify the persons affected by these conditions. c. Discuss how the proposed activity will correct these conditions. OTHER PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS - Please note, these requirements need to be addressed if the acquisition activity is funded. See Section VII for complete details. 570.503 (b)(8) Reversion of Assets. 570.504 Program Income 570.505 Use of Real Property 570.602 Section 109 of the Act. --Non-discrimination 570.603 Labor Standards 570.604 Environmental Standards 570.605 National Flood Insurance Program 570.606 Displacement, relocation, acquisition, and replacement of housing 570.607 Employment and Contracting Opportunities 570.609 Use of Debarred, Suspended or Ineligible Contractors or Subrecipients 570.611 Conflict of Interest NOTE: The Office of Housing and Community Development has as its primary goal the provision of safe, affordable housing. For this reason, our program will not consider projects that will incur relocation costs as a result of displacement of persons from housing units.. Section IV ELIGIBLE ACTIVITIES Page 4-2

Section IV ELIGIBLE ACTIVITIES Public Improvements Acquisition, construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or installation of public facilities and improvements, except as provided in 570.207 Ineligible Activities, carried out by a public or private nonprofit entity. Public improvements include but are not limited to: streets, curbs, sidewalks, storm drainage, sanitary sewers, parks and recreation facilities, community centers, and libraries. In undertaking such activities, design features and improvements which promote energy efficiency may be included. Such activities may also include the execution of architectural design features, and similar treatments intended to enhance the aesthetic quality of facilities and improvements receiving CDBG assistance, such as decorative pavements, railings, sculptures, pools of water and fountains, and other works of art. In certain cases, nonprofit entities and subrecipients may acquire title to public facilities. When such facilities are owned by nonprofit entities or subrecipients, they shall be operated so as to be open for use by the general public during all normal hours of operation. Public facilities and improvements eligible for assistance under this paragraph are subject to the policies in 570.200(b) & (c). Multi-Use Building/Facility ( 570.200 (b) Special policies governing facilities.) A public facility otherwise eligible for assistance under the CDBG program may be provided with CDBG funds even if it is part of a multiple use building containing ineligible uses under the following conditions: The facility which is otherwise eligible and proposed for assistance must occupy a designated and discrete area within the larger facility; and The subrecipient can determine the costs attributable to the facility proposed for assistance as separate and distinct from the overall costs of the multiple-use building and/or facility. Allowable costs are limited to those attributable to the eligible portion of the building/facility. Reasonable fees may be charged for the use of the facilities assisted with CDBG funds, but charges such as excessive membership fees, which will have the effect of precluding low and moderate income persons from using the facilities, are not permitted. Special Assessments ( 570.200 (c)) Special Assessments are defined as the recovery of the capital costs of a public improvement through a fee or charge levied or filed as a lien against a parcel of real estate as a direct result of benefit derived from the installation of a public improvement, or a one-time charge made as a condition of access to a public improvement. Periodic charges based on the use of a public improvement, such as water or sewer user charges, even if such charges include the recovery of all or some portion of the capital costs of the public improvement are not considered to be special assessments. Where CDBG funds are used to pay all or part of the cost of a public improvement, special assessments may be imposed as follows: (1) Special assessments to recover the CDBG funds may be made only against properties owned and occupied by persons not of low and moderate income. Such assessments constitute program income in accordance with 24 CFR 570.503(b)(3). (Refer to Section 7 Other Program Requirements.) (2) Special assessments to recover the non-cdbg portion may be made provided that CDBG funds are used to pay the special assessment in behalf of all properties owned and occupied by low and moderate income persons; except that CDBG funds need not be used to pay the special assessments in behalf of properties owned and occupied by moderate income persons if the grant recipient certifies that it does not have sufficient CDBG funds to pay the assessments in behalf of all of the low and moderate income owner-occupant persons. Funds collected through such special assessments are not program income. Section IV ELIGIBLE ACTIVITIES Page 4-3
